Ahmad Issa : Embedding Seifert fibered spaces in the 4-sphere (Feb 4, 2019 3:10 PM)
Which 3-manifolds smoothly embed in the 4-sphere? This seemingly simple question turns out to be rather subtle. Using Donaldson's theorem, we derive strong restrictions to embedding a Seifert fibered space over an orientable base surface, which in particular gives a complete classification when e > k/2, where k is the number of exceptional fibers and e is the normalized central weight. Our results point towards an interesting conjecture which I'll discuss. This is joint work with Duncan McCoy.
